About:
Scene Builder is an open-source, drag-and-drop visual designer for JavaFX application development. It enables developers to quickly create and modify user interfaces by visually assembling components, which directly generates FXML code. This tool significantly accelerates the UI design workflow and reduces manual coding errors.

Key Features:

Drag-and-drop visual interface builder
Real-time preview of JavaFX layouts
Direct FXML code generation and editing
Integration with Eclipse, IntelliJ, and NetBeans

Use Cases:

Rapid prototyping of JavaFX user interfaces
Learning JavaFX layout principles visually
Separating UI design from application logic

Alternatives:

IntelliJ IDEA GUI Designer – Built into IntelliJ but primarily focused on Swing, not JavaFX.
Eclipse WindowBuilder – A powerful visual designer for Swing and SWT, but not optimized for JavaFX.
